Larry, I suspect that David Clark is your best bet, but Ben Stein did review Eartec and Sena headsets for less noisy environments
@bwpirate Tom, I like the reverse idea. Assuming that many boats with a premium VHF like this also have an AIS transponder and are probably feeding ta...
Rory, what you're linking to at Defender is Icom's M510TR Class B AIS transponder with its own target screen, not the new M510 VHF. I guess the simila...
@wkearney99 I share your concerns, Bill, but I just got off the phone with Ray Novak of IcomAmerica and one thing I learned is that the M510 can join ...
Chris, does the Si-Tex AIS have a NMEA 2000 port? If so, I think that the Actisense W2K-1 is an excellent WiFi gateway: If the output is only NMEA 0...
You have to build a NMEA 2000 network, Harvey, even for just two devices. It has to be powered and it has to be terminated. This Ancor kit should do t...

Hi @NewfD90. If you're the person who marked your post [SOLVED], that's great. Otherwise, I could help a bit. The thing I know is that Vesper's list o...
Right, and a lot of the NMEA certification trainings are being done virtually these days:
@malanglo, I think you also need a Garmin GND Nexus to NMEA 2000 bridge:
@newfd90 "I'm going to try adding a cheap transparent WiFi<->Ethernet bridge on the SeaTalkNG network and dump the packets." I think you mea...
